I endured the humiliation and humiliation while being besieged by the ghost story elder sister.

"No...no, Arisa won't cause any trouble, Aunt Ami, don't worry about it!"

"Mom!" Arisa, who was standing nearby, immediately voiced her protest.

but.

When Ami asked her that question, Nozomi looked somewhat embarrassed.

Ever since Arisa and Honoka talked about something shady, she's been acting like she's been granted a get-out-of-jail-free card, and she's become increasingly carefree in the apartment.

It's like he was dancing around at Fanxia's bottom line, but he didn't give Fanxia any excuse to teach her a lesson.

"In that case, I should be going."

After saying that, Aunt Ashi got up, as if preparing to leave.

"Aren't you going to stay for a meal before you leave?"

"No."

She waved her hand, turned around without looking back, went to the entrance, put on her shoes, and then pushed open the door and left the apartment.

The three people left in the living room looked at each other, not quite understanding why Ashi had come all this way.

however.

In a nook or cranny unnoticed by the group, a small, dark red, clear glass bead, about the size of a grain of rice, lay quietly on the floor, seemingly left behind by Ashi.

Suddenly, Arisa placed her hands on Nozomi's shoulders and said softly.

"Let's go take a shower together first. We can have Peros cook dinner later."

"Eh?"

He took a bath with Arisa... Did he hear that right?

But when he looked into the girl's wine-red eyes, which were filled with expectation, he knew that what she had just said was true.

"But……"

"What's there to 'but' about! If the two of us shower separately, it'll take so long!"

Arisa, who had already come up with an excuse to shut Himo up, didn't even give him a chance to go back to his room and get his own change of clothes.

The girl forcefully pulled the boy into the changing room.

A rustling sound of clothes rubbing against each other filled the air. Without hesitation, Arisa threw all the fabric she was wearing into the laundry basket.

On the contrary, it was Ximiao who was trying to get away with it. After waiting for him for a long time, she finally managed to take off her shirt.

Finally, Arisa, who couldn't stand it any longer, took matters into her own hands and quickly stripped him naked.

She was still standing to the side, grumbling about the shy Nozomi.

"We've already slept together, Mio, haven't you tried everything, things you shouldn't have done? Why are you so shy when it comes to taking a bath together?"

She asked in confusion, and then skillfully grabbed Ximiao's slender wrist, leading the boy wrapped in a bath towel into the bathroom.

Fanxia, ​​sitting on the sofa, didn't say anything, letting the two of them fool around in the bathroom.

It sounds like it's going to be quite lively.

Chapter 81 Determination

"Mio, do you usually take care of your body? Your skin feels so smooth, I can't help but envy it..."

Alisa, who was sitting behind Nozomi, applied shower gel to her hands and gently stroked the boy's smooth back, and couldn't help but admire it.

Unfortunately, Nozomi didn't have the time to respond to her praise.

Although he had changed Arisa's clothes before and even done things he shouldn't have, this situation was truly the first time.

All he had to do was turn his head decisively, and he would see the girl's beautiful body laid bare before him.

However, Mio's face was now completely red, she was so embarrassed that she let Arisa behind her do as she pleased, and she couldn't say a word.

This also gave Arisa the opportunity to do bad things.

In the living room.

Today was very unusual. Honoka, who was holding her phone, did not react to the fact that Arisa took Nozomi to the bathroom to take a bath together.

She appeared to be chatting with someone, her slender, pale fingers tapping incessantly on the phone screen.

Milky-white Yukiko: "I suddenly regret making a deal with the devil."

The most beautiful girl in Akinayama: "Xiaosu￣へ￣"

then.

Fanxia then told her best friend everything that had happened during this time.

So many things have happened lately that she's been overwhelmed and has forgotten that she has such a strategist backing her up.

After Fanxia typed a lot, the chat box kept showing the status of the other party typing.

A little while later, I saw my best friend and asked her a question.

The most beautiful girl on Mount Akina: "Do you believe her?"

This left Fanxia, ​​who was sitting on the sofa, stunned. She seemed to have never considered this question before.

a long time.

Having already finished showering, Hiyo and Arisa were in such a rush that they didn't bring any change of clothes with them when they went into the bathroom.

They had no choice but to wrap themselves in a thin bath towel before slowly walking out of the bathroom.

When they both changed into dry pajamas and came to the living room, you could see that there was still a slight blush on Ximiao's pretty face.

"What's wrong? Sister Fanxia, ​​your expression looks a little strange..."

Looking into those beautiful eyes of Fanxia, ​​who was staring at her, Ximiao couldn't help but say something with some confusion.

"Ah? It's nothing, I was just thinking about whether you should cook dinner tonight, Mio or let Pegasus do it."

Upon hearing the boy's words, Fanxia quickly looked away, glancing guiltily at the television not far away, trying to cover it up.

However, instead of leaving so easily as she wished, Ximiao ignored Arisa, who was gesturing for him to enter the room, and sat directly on the sofa.

Right next to Fanxia, ​​the boy's light blue eyes were so close that her gaze inexplicably darted away.

"Fanxia-nee, you're acting a little strange today~"

"...That's just your imagination, Mio."

Not understanding why he would suddenly say that, Fanxia was about to get up and go back to her room to avoid Ximiao's questioning when she found that the boy had already grasped her slender wrist.

"Normally, if Arisa makes even the slightest bit of physical intimacy, you'll react very strongly, but today Arisa dragged me into the bathroom to take a shower, and you didn't say a word, isn't that strange?"

"..."

She looked at Xi Ling, who seemed to be trying to see something in her eyes, and after a moment of silence, Fan Xia spoke in a deep voice.

"Mio, do you really want to know?"

Upon hearing this, Nozomi nodded, indicating that she did indeed want to know the reason why Honoka-nee had become like this.

"That's because I've noticed a small problem... I feel that your heart, Mio, is already completely filled with Arisa, leaving no room for me. So why should I make a futile struggle?"

"Eh?"

He never imagined that the reason would be like this, and...

The boy's clear, light blue eyes were fixed on Fanxia's pretty face, trying to figure out if her words meant what he thought.

But after seeing the incredibly serious expression in Fanxia's beautiful eyes, he was at a loss for words.

After a while.

Ximio glanced in the direction of the room, and after realizing that Arisa wasn't looking this way, he whispered to Honoka.

"No, Fanxia-nee... it's not like that."

"Then prove it to me!"

After saying that, she closed her eyes, waiting for the boy to give her a response.

Sitting on the sofa, Ximiao was taken aback when she saw Fanxia, ​​who was already prepared.

Then, his gaze slowly moved down to Fanxia's soft pink lips, and he immediately understood what Fanxia meant by "proof".

but……

After confirming several times that Arisa wouldn't find out, Hiyo finally made up his mind, leaned in, and let his lips touch hers.

This fleeting feeling, though only for a moment, was enough to make Fanxia very satisfied and confirm that there was indeed a place in his heart that belonged to her.

She slowly opened her eyes, her beautiful gaze fixed on Xi Ling, who had already turned her head away. A slight smile involuntarily curved the corners of her lips.

Then, she let go of the cute boy in front of her, put her feet back on the sofa cushions, took out her phone, and planned to talk to her best friend about it.

As for Nozomi, she felt guilty seeing Arisa in her room, but staying in the living room and looking at Honoka would probably make things even worse.

then.

Without hesitation, he went into the kitchen, intending to help Peros prepare dinner.

Right now, the only time Hiyo feels safe in the house is when she's with this adorable cat maid.

When dinner was ready and everyone sat around the small square table in the living room, ready to start eating, Ximiao felt incredibly awkward.

Sitting opposite him was Fanxia, ​​who was looking at him with affectionate eyes. Next to her, Arisa would occasionally use her chopsticks to pick up a piece of chicken breast and put it to his mouth.

Only Beros, whose mind was filled with nothing but dry food, looked curiously at the scene before him with his heterochromatic beast eyes, wondering what was going on.

Or else it would join in the fun?

Then, Pelos followed suit, picking up a piece of fish and bringing it to Hio's lips.

What he got in return was a disgruntled glare from the boy.
